Peter Green was a British blues guitarist and songwriter, best known as a founding member of the iconic band Fleetwood Mac in the late 1960s. He was revered for his soulful guitar playing and distinctive sound, particularly on songs like "Black Magic Woman," which later gained fame through Carlos Santana's cover. Green's musical career was marked by his profound contributions to blues music, but it was also troubled by mental health challenges and personal struggles. He left Fleetwood Mac in 1970, but his influence on music, especially the blues genre, remains significant and enduring.
